As a millennial the Iraq war was when I learned America felt no responsibility for human life abroad and hurricane Katrina was when I learned it felt no responsibility for American lives either
This is the greatest sports photo I've ever seen. Every detail is magnificent.
Finally dropping the many, many books I've pruned from my shelves off at Open Books after they've been sitting in bags for uhhh an embarrassingly long amount of time, please clap
Love a direct, to the point queen. Say it plainly and leave no space for bad-faith bullshit.

I hope everyone who tried to give up on Coyote vs Acme feels bad about their choices, that was genuinely a delight.

Bay Area friends: A friend found these small kittens behind a gas station and we've been trying to find them a home for almost two months. For now, they live in a small bathroom. Would you consider adopting? They are vaxxed, neutered, and incredibly affectionate. Please help!

"Some of us are illegal & some are not wanted Our work contract's out & we have to move on But it's 600 miles to that Mexican border They chase us like outlaws, like rustlers, like thieves You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane All they will call you will be deportee" - Woody & Dolly
I was today years old when I learned Dolly Parton recorded Woody Guthrie's song "Deportee (Plane Wreck At Los Gatos)" in 1980. It's a heartbreaking song about immigration and specifically deportation plane that crashed in 1948 killing dozens of Mexican "bracero" workers. Her version is beautiful💔
I distinctly remember the late 80s/early 90s where she was constantly in tabloids that were all focused on scrutinizing her body/appearance/plastic surgery. As a child snooping through grandma's magazines, I knew her for that long before I knew anything about her as a musician or a human being.
people will try to rewrite history like "ooooh everyone loved dolly! everyone knew dolly was talented and special" NO. there were very many people who treated dolly like GARBAGE before she was THE dolly parton, and yet it's because she outlasted all of them that she became so unmatchably beloved
Republicans have spent the last year trying to defund Dolly Parton

FRIENDS IN THE NYC AREA: Okay, this is a tough one, but please bear with me. My wife's lifelong friend has stage 4 pancreatic cancer and is desperately seeking a home for his two cats when that time comes. The elder, Wally, is something like 13 years old and DELIGHTFULLY dim. The younger, Doris,
FOR THE RECORD: If you did not immediately understand that sentence, you still have a chance to save yourself. Take it! Run! It’s too late for the rest of us, but you can live free!
